I absolutely abhor when a movie or tv show shows you the end or aftermath first and then goes to beginning with something like "48 hours earlier..." Why do this? It is stupid. Ever hear of a book that did this? No, you haven't. I am immediately inclined to dislike whatever I am watching whenever a movie or tv show does this.

That's not an uncommon literary technique. In fact, God Bless You Mr. Rosewater takes it to its logical extreme and keeps telling you that Mr. Rosewater is X many minutes away from having Kilgore Trout bite off his finger.
